Treatment of type 2 diabetes by free fatty acid receptor agonists [PDF]
Dietary free fatty acids (FFAs), such as ω-3 fatty acids, regulate metabolic and anti-inflammatory processes, with many of these effects attributed to FFAs interacting with a family of G protein-coupled receptors.

Glucagon‐like peptide‐1 (GLP‐1) is an incretin hormone increasing postprandial insulin release. GLP‐1 also induces diuresis and natriuresis in humans and rodents. The GLP‐1 receptor is extensively expressed in the renal vascular tree in normotensive rats

Aims/Introduction Glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonists (GLP‐1 RA) might be less effective in patients with severe hyperglycemia, because hyperglycemia downregulated the GLP‐1 receptor in an animal study.

Allosteric optical control of a class B G-protein-coupled receptor [PDF]
Allosteric regulation promises to open up new therapeutic avenues by increasing drug specificity at G‐protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs). However, drug discovery efforts are at present hampered by an inability to precisely control the allosteric site ...

Insulin-like growth factor-1 is a negative modulator of glucagon secretion [PDF]
Glucagon secretion involves a combination of paracrine, autocrine, hormonal, and autonomic neural mechanisms. Type 2 diabetes often presents impaired glucagon suppression by insulin and glucose.

Extracellular loops 2 and 3 of the calcitonin receptor selectively modify agonist binding and efficacy. [PDF]
Class B peptide hormone GPCRs are targets for the treatment of major chronic disease. Peptide ligands of these receptors display biased agonism and this may provide future therapeutic advantage.

Intestinal gene expression in pigs: effects of reduced feed intake during weaning and potential impact of dietary components [PDF]
The weaning transition is characterised by morphological, histological and microbial changes, often leading to weaning-associated disorders. These intestinal changes can partly be ascribed to the lack of luminal nutrition arising from the reduced feed ...

Characterization of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor-binding determinants [PDF]
Glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) is a potent insulinotropic hormone currently under study as a therapeutic agent for type 2 diabetes. Since an understanding of the molecular mechanisms leading to high-affinity receptor (R) binding and activation may facilitate the development of more potent GLP-1R agonists, we have localized specific regions of GLP-1R ...
